I have a feeling this could turn out to be the most important rabbit hole yet, so pay attention to this thread. 🐇

Most conspiracy theories claim some shadowy cabal is secretly pulling the strings. But here's the twist: this one insists the cabal doesn't exist at all.

For decades, prosecutors and journalists have pointed to the Cartel de los Soles, a Venezuelan military-political network accused of moving tons of cocaine with impunity. U.S. indictments call out generals, ministers, even Maduro himself.

Yet powerful leftist voices, from Alliance for Global Justice to COHA analysts to UN drug officials, swear it’s all fiction. They label the Suns cartel a “myth,” a “media creation,” or just “narco-mythology.” Even the Wikipedia page brands it as merely “alleged.” 🤯

📊 Ex-UN drug czar Pino Arlacchi says it’s as fake as the Loch Ness Monster.
📰 NGO allies echo “no evidence.”
💻 Wikipedia editors refuse to treat it as fact.

Why are so many powerful voices so insistent on denying the Cartel of the Suns exist?

I don't know. But I suspect there is a powerful financial incentive here.

Let's see if this makes the trolls as angry as they were about yesterday's boat thread.

👇 Scroll down for receipts
Alliance for Global Justice -- yes, the same one I wrote about yesteday as the lowest-hanging fruit to crack down on paid protesters -- is one of the biggest amplifiers of the "Cartel of the Suns does not exist" narratives.

🚨 THREAD 🚨

If the Trump administration is serious about cracking down on “paid protesters,” the trail starts with Alliance for Global Justice.

They serve as the fiscal sponsor behind Refuse Fascism, the group that organized the U.S. Open protest.

And the story only gets darker from here... Donations to Refuse Fascism are tax free, courtesy of Alliance for Global Justice.

🚨🇻🇪🚤 THREAD: No, there were not "innocent fishermen" on that boat

On Sept 2, a U.S. strike destroyed a go-fast leaving San Juan de Unare, Sucre. Some on social media are pushing the "poor fishermen" line. This thread unpacks why that narrative doesn't hold water (no pun intended). 🧵

👉 Origin: Unare = entrenched cartel hub (Tren de Aragua / Tren del Llano).
👉 Destination: Pre-programmed GPS to Trinidad, a narco transshipment leg.
👉 Vessel: 12m "flipper," 4×200HP outboards. No fisherman runs that setup.
👉 TTPs: Multi-boat launch, jettisoned cargo, night run. Classic narco playbook.

💡 Families in Unare themselves admitted these men had "entered that world" for pay.

Stay tuned, I'll walk through the receipts. The boat was a "flipper" designed to outrun law enforcement, typical in drug smuggling configuration, and Sun Juan de Unare is dominated by drug trafficking.

🧵 THREAD: Rand Paul is no libertarian, and here are the receipts.

When Paul criticized the strike on cartel boats, it wasn't about principle. He's spent his career entangled in the interventionist machine while calling himself a "libertarian."

He sits on the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. And in his own book, he went out of his way to praise U.S.-funded "democracy promotion" groups like Freedom House, the International Republican Institute, and the National Democratic Institute, calling them "non-partisan."

Non-partisan? Members of Congress literally sit on their boards! Freedom House takes Soros money. They operate as State Department cut-outs.

Rand Paul defended them. In his own words.

And that's just the beginning.

Let's dig in ⬇️ Remember the 2016 Presidential run that Rand Paul flirted with? One of his advisers was Lorne Craner -- former president of International Republican Institute.

Rand Paul knows perfectly well what the IRI is and does.

🚨 State Dept Sanctions 3 NGOs

The U.S. just sanctioned Al Haq, Al Mezan, and PCHR... all tied to the terrorist group PFLP.

Soros heavily financed all three.

When do we sanction the financers themselves?

One of the most important things to understand about George Soros is that he is not an outsider. He is a deep insider for the State Department and has even financed @IRIglobal .

She appears to work for the Palestinian Youth Movement. @SenTomCotton has written about it , they are aliased through a 501(c)(3) called Honor the Earth (EIN 454714238). They get Arabella Advisors and Open Society grants, but the biggest one and specifically earmarked for Palestine Youth Movement is Wespac Foundation.


@RepLuna @SenTomCotton Wespac Foundation (EIN 133109400) in turn has earmarked grants for Palestinian Youth Movement from Solidaire Network. They fund a lot of race-based funds, including BLM and Muslim ones. I see Pierre Omidyar's Democracy Fund in there, as well as other billionaire philanthropists.

🧵 THREAD: Timothy Mynett: Ilhan Omar's husband and the progressive money man you've probably never heard of

Ilhan Omar's wealth headlines ($30M net worth 👀) are dominating today's feeds. But behind that story is someone far less visible: her husband, Tim Mynett.

Not the ex with the bizarre "married her brother" rumor. This one is far more interesting, and far more connected.

For nearly two decades, Mynett has been the quiet operator raising millions, plugging into D.C.’s progressive networks, and eventually pivoting into global business ventures.

📚 From poli-sci undergrad in New York...
⚖️ To moving foundation money at Alliance for Justice...
💼 To consulting alongside Obama’s inner circle at New Partners...

He's climbed rung by rung through the fundraising machine that fuels progressive politics.

This thread unpacks:
➡️ His rise through nonprofits & campaigns
➡️ His deep ties across the progressive donor universe
➡️ The surprising pivots... from digital firms to wine, cannabis, and impact investing with ex-ambassadors

👇 Let's dig in. Mynett first appeared in the news in 2019, when divorce papers claimed he was having an affair with Ilhan Omar, even as Omar's campaign was paying him money. Both Omar and Mynett denied it at the time.

🧵 THREAD: Donna Brazile: More than a campaign operative.

Today, President Trump posted a TruthSocial post asking why Donna Brazile is still around on ABC. The answer is simple: she is a part of the Deep State, serving on the National Democratic Institute (NDI).

Her timeline spans multiple Presidents, runs from the King Holiday campaign of the early 80s to the State Department’s Fulbright Board.

She's one of the clearest case studies of how U.S. partisan politics, media narratives, and public diplomacy interlock to form a machinery of influence.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread.
Brazile is a board member of the National Democratic Institute (NDI), which is the Democratic wing of National Endowment for Democracy (NED), which was formed in the Reagan years to replace a discredited and weakened CIA.

For those wondering, Miller is likely referring to Acacia Center for Justice, a spinoff of the Vera Institute of Justice.

Before Biden took office, Blue Meridian Partners, the Ford Foundation, George Soros, and Tom Arnold had already seeded Vera... not to provide legal aid directly, but to build the infrastructure needed to scale it instantly as soon as it was hooked up to federal government dollars.

Within days of the inauguration, the American Immigration Council delivered a policy paper urging the new administration to pour resources into Vera. Soon after, Vera created Acacia to be ready to use the billion-dollar federal contract. Ok, seems like people are challenging Miller's narrative. So I'll provide receipts.

When President Biden took office in January 2021, immigrant rights advocates immediately urged his administration to expand legal representation for immigrants facing removal. A January 2021 policy brief from the American Immigration Council and AILA called on Biden to establish a nationwide, federally-funded counsel system, starting with vulnerable groups like detained adults, unaccompanied children, and others with special needs.

🧵THREAD: CNN & The State Department & : A Hidden Partnership 🌐📺

Everyone knows CNN as "the world's newsroom." What's less discussed is how closely its reporting coordinates with U.S. and U.N. foreign policy machinery.

Richard Haass, former member of the National Security Council, said CNN was useful because “CNN gave [us] tremendous access to markets that normally [we] couldn’t get to … We felt we could manage public opinion in this country and … manage the alliance, or the coalition dimensions of the war, as well as get to the Iraqi people and the Arab world.”

In other words, Washington deliberately used CNN to send messages to domestic audiences, allies in Europe, and Arab publics. The interdependence goes sleep.

As always, patience as I pull the thread together.
CNN was founded in 1980 by Ted Turner and Kofi Annan. As the world's first 24/7 global broadcasting channel, it had an immense impact on the State Department. As State Department press secretary put it, "Time for reaction is compressed. Analysis and intelligence-gathering is out."

In other words, old diplomatic process (intelligence, cables, staff work) is bypassed. Instead, the person speaking on CNN, becomes central. CNN became where U.S. foreign policy gets constituted in real-time.

@JDVance Saw this thread. I'm researching her right now. @JDVance In the meanwhile, the founder of Politico has a very interesting background:

🧵 THREAD: The worldview of George Soros, the self-styled Messiah who reshaped the modern age

He once admitted:
"If truth be known, I carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood… But when I had made my way in the world I wanted to indulge my fantasies to the extent that I could afford."

And indulge them he did.

I’ve written many threads about Soros, but never one that lays out his ideology in full, why his money carried more weight than Rockefeller or Bezos, why his methods proved uniquely disruptive.

Soros’s time is running short. But the system he engineered, the ripple effects of his philosophy, will outlive him by generations.

The question isn’t whether we agree with him. It’s whether we’re willing to study his playbook... and use the same tools ourselves.

Stay with me as I pull this thread together. As we will soon see, Soros played a non-trivial role in the collapse of the Soviet Union.

In the 1960s and 1970s, he developed a financial theory called reflexivity. He went onto applying it to be one of the most successful hedge fund managers ever, if not hte most successful.

He found that it applied to history as well as finances and used it to hasten the Soviet Union's collapse.

🧵 THREAD: Why the UK Can't Deport Refugees, Even Criminal Ones

A Scottish teen’s viral clash with a migrant, and a MP’s new report on R*pe G*ngs, have reignited debate over asylum and deportation in Britain.

This thread will detail:
⚖️ what treaties the UK signed onto
✈️ why deportations get blocked again and again
💷 the financial incentives built into the system

It’s more complex — and more instructive for the US — than most headlines admit.

Patience while I pull the thread together… 🌍📜
First, if you haven't already seen @RupertLowe10 's report, here it is:

Ghislaine Maxwell Transcripts Summary

🔹 Maxwell denies the charges that she solicited women for Epstein. Rather, these millions Epstein paid were for business reasons.
🔹Maxwell says she did NOT see underage girls involved or anything "non-consensual" or anything improper.
🔹Maxwell says there has never been a list. No blackmail and explicitly calls any rumor of intelligence agency ties "bullshit."

Other details:
🔹Epstein managed the money of Elizabeth Johnson (J&J heir) in the 90s
🔹Epstein had a business relationship with Jes Stanley (former CEO of Barclays)
🔹Epstein helped Lynn de Rothschild financially (although Maxwell says Rothschild will deny it).
🔹Epstein and Andrés Pastrana (Colombia president) traveled together to Colombia and met with Castro in Cuba.
🔹Larry Summer was a personal friend of Epstein.
🔹Maxwell thinks she met Alex Soros at an event but doesn't remember the exact context.
🔹Sergey Brin held a birthday party, possibly with Epstein (I can't tell from transcript), and Elon Musk was present.
🔹Bobby Kennedy knew Epstein, she learned that on a dinosaur bone hunting trip (of all things)...
🔹Maxwell says Trump seemed friendly with Epstein, but explicitly says she never saw anything improper.
🔹Epstein for some reason loved inviting scientists like Stephen Jay Gould for dinner and talking science with them.


Transcripts are here - I am as surprised as any of you:

🚨💣 THREAD: John Bolton: The Man Who Never Saw a War He Didn’t Like 💣🚨

John Bolton got his start as Reagan's assistant administrator of USAID -- a time when USAID was dramatically re-transformed from Nixon-era "New Directions" third-world assistance to being contingent on "Democracy & Governance" Cold War goals.

This thread unpacks:
1️⃣ His obsession with staying in wars forever
2️⃣ How his NGO & think-tank gigs kept him flush with hawkish donors
3️⃣ His time in the Trump administration and why his home got searched

As always, patience as I pull this together. 🧵 In his most infamous video where he was handed a grenade trophy, he says:
"I was in charge of policy and budget at USAID during the Reagan administration, when we undertook a major effort to fix it. And I'm going to show you my farewell present from AID. You can see it’s a hand grenade. And it says on it: ‘John R. Bolton, Truest Reaganaut, AID 1983. This is a style of government."

🚨 THREAD: The Muslim Students Association (MSA) and its roots in Muslim Brotherhood 🚨

One of the most mainstream Muslim organizations on North American campuses—hundreds of chapters, tens of thousands of alumni (including Huma Abedin).

But few realize:

· It was founded in 1963 with guidance from Muslim Brotherhood and Jamaat-e-Islami activists.
· Early funding flowed from the Muslim World League and other Gulf patrons.
· Its leaders helped build ISNA and NAIT.
· And Brotherhood influence still echoes in MSA's DNA.

In this thread, I'll trace:
1️⃣ Who the founders were
2️⃣ How MB ideology shaped MSA's mission
3️⃣ Where the money came from
4️⃣ How the ideology evolved in America
5️⃣.How their alumni influence both the Republican and Democratic parties

As always, patience as I pull together the thread live.
As a reminder, the Muslim Brotherhood *is* Hamas -- it is a sprawling, influential network which has received billions from Saudi Arabia.

One of the 9/11 terrorists was trained in a Brotherhood camp. But the US authorities had turned a blind eye to Brotherhood operations in the USA -- possibly because it was already so embedded in society thanks to influence of the Muslim Student Association and other "mainstream" associations.

🧵 THREAD: Muslim Brotherhood-linked charity president advising U.S. Foreign Policy

The President of Islamic Relief USA, one of the largest Muslim charities in the U.S., has served on official advisory bodies to both USAID and the State Department.

That same org’s parent, Islamic Relief Worldwide (UK), has been:

❌ Banned by Israel for alleged Hamas links
❌ Listed by the UAE as a terrorist group
❌ Barred from funding by Germany & the Netherlands over Muslim Brotherhood ties

And yet...

✅ Still working with UN and USAID in fundraising efforts

Who is this man? His name is Anwar A. Khan. After 30 years as the head of Islamic Relief USA, he recently stepped down. He now works with another Muslim charity, the American Muslim Community Foundation (AMCF) which has donated to PCRF, the group whose founder, Steve Sosebee, was exposed yesterday by @LauraLoomer for trafficking Palestinian children to the United States.

Patience as I pull the thread together.
Islamic Relief USA (IRUSA) is the USA branch to Islamic Relief Worldwide (IRW). IRW gets most of its income from UN, but also donations from the country-specific branches. Of the donors and members combined, IRUSA is the biggest single source for IRW, followed by the UN.

Heal Palestine (the group who is posting about welcoming Gaza refugees) has EIN 882454707 and filed a 990N for the year 2023. Yet, 990Ns are for charities with revenues under 50K and I found multiple instances of 50K+ grants.

Heal Palestine's board is full of technocrats ... but perhaps most telling is that there is a Mohanned Awad on the board who is publicly declared as bringing "UAE connections to HEAL’s Board."

Steve Sosebee, the founder of Heal Palestine, also founded the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF). They too got an enormous cash influx boost starting in 2023.

The UAE has a strong connection to PCRF. They are mentioned in multiple social media posts. Was the UAE involved in bringing Gaza refugees over to the USA?

The CEO of the organization who is printing banners for these protests (Razom for Ukraine) came directly from Kyiv's Soros Foundation.

https://twitter.com/Alladdin1983/status/1956237722856907250

The Kyiv foundation appears to be aliased as "International Renaissance Foundation."

🇵🇸💰 FOLLOW THE MONEY: PALESTINIAN “KIDS’ SHOWS”

For years, children’s programming in Palestinian territories has doubled as political indoctrination, often bankrolled through foreign donors ... but also our own taxpayer dollars.

Over the next posts, I’ll trace how entertainment for kids became propaganda for war, and how we ended up bankrolling that.

Patience as I pull the thread together.
The most infamous show was Tomorrow's Pioneers, which aired in 2007-2009, with a revival in 2013. In one of its episodes, a Mickey Mouse look-alike was "safeguarded" with the trust of getting Tel Al-Rabi land back (Tel Aviv).

🗂️ THREAD: Following the Money Trail in Puerto Rico: Robert F. Mujica, Jr.

I’ve been digging into Puerto Rico's tax incentives for a while now. That research quickly led into the world of fiscal governance and bankruptcy oversight.

One name kept surfacing: Robert F. Mujica, Jr.

Mujica is a former New York State Budget Director who now serves as Executive Director of Puerto Rico’s Financial Oversight and Management Board (FOMB), the entity that oversees the island’s finances. And by some accounts, now making over 9× the Governor’s salary to “oversee” Puerto Rico’s finances.

Paid with Puerto Rican taxpayer money, Mujica runs the Financial Oversight & Management Board, the group deciding how much gets cut and what gets sold off.

This is important as Americans debate the statehood of Puerto Rico....

Patience as I pull the thread together... Mujica served as Cuomo's NY budget director, earning 216K/year. He would get offered a position on Puerto Rico's state fiscal board, wherein his salary would triple to 625K. This despite that Puerto Rico has a population of 3.2 million, far less than NYC's population of ~8.8 million.
